Well... This sounds like optimizing tests for coverage. Which is not a novel idea, but certainly not the worst.
It really depends on what problem you experience the most. Automated tests do require an awful lot of maintenance, and minimizing the number of tests you need to track all the invariants you care about is something that helps everyone in the long run.
